:smoking: Are you guys talking about the CailiMagic or CaMg+? The former is nitrate based in part, hence the appx. 1-0-0, very mild for N at just 1,.. the latter is their "organic" line, GO, a fermented sugar base and all carbonate sources Ca and Mg,.. This is better for soils from what I've seen, and the extra carbonates will help buffer up the acidic feeds,...
As for soils- especially OF! I have taken an Accurate 8 pH probe to several bags in two different local store, and tested them on the spot after the clowns refused to believe they were so badly undercooked and acidic-- talking low 5's here! Instant TARFU, and what come into the Infirmary still to this day tells me doesn't give the slightest shit about it, they're still riding on their old rep' from years ago,... @iWumbo it's normally not a good thing to flush a ready-to-use soil like that, but in this case, it might actually help!... The problem isn't consistent, as some folks seem to get OK bags and swear by them,... but I live 400 miles away, same state as homebase, and we get shwagg here, even the Happy Frog tested super sour!

The problem is the mix is too hot. I've found it works very well if you cut it with compost, etc.

Ocean Forrest or any soil made by fox farms is no good anymore in my opinion I have seen way to many issues with it the past year and would never trust it any more

I haven't been able to find the 0-0-0 this year at all. I do have four bottles though. 1-0-0, 2-0-0, 3-0-0, and 4-0-0.

yes I'm a hoarder and have enough crap for a warehouse grow.

Playing it smart I have been thinking all just go buy a big jug of the 0-0-0 cal mag instead of litre bottles . After hearing what you are saying I'm getting two lol

 

[pop22]

now there's an idea!

I just had an epiphany !!! I have several greenhouses around the area I wonder if I could rent space ???

Hmmm that idea might make me try them again. I personally hate air pots, I've had no luck at all with the damned things lol! I know a lot of people use them effectively though. And I hate all that hand watering to boot. I think I kept a 3 gallon, gave away all the rest I had! But nothing will get me away from auto pots!

Hey Pop lets go Airoponics . Just ad water .

To be fair. I would rather use roots. But is only available soil near me. That being said. Using a Coco loco happy frog and ocean forest mix. Soil testing at 6.5-6.8 depending on my watering. So I can't say I have gotten gnats or any of the really really acidic stuff people have mentioned.

The problem is you should not have to do that

 

[pop22]

the amount of N in most cal/mag is so little that its is meaningless, if its 2 percent or less. So if you add say, 100 ppms of cal mag, you get 2 ppms of N. 2 ppm added to whatever you already have is like spitting in the ocean......

No good soil around here either but I order biobizz, free shipping and it shows up the next day everytime.
